Course title 3GPP LTE Basics
 
Course description LTE, Long Term Evolution, is the trade name of the development work in 3GPP to satisfy the future vision of UMTS- higher bitrates, band-width efficiency and flexibility, as well as cost efficiency SAE, System Architecture Evolution.

The zipped LTE overview basic course covers the UMTS-LTE/SAE architecture with main focus on LTE (evolved UTRAN, E-UTRAN).
The LTE / SAE user plane protocols and the control plane protocols are presented.
The physical layer, covering OFDM and DFT-spread OFDM is presented : The layer 3 RRC and NAS are also studied.
 
Who would benefit Those requiering an fast overview of the LTE technology an understanding of the overall architecture and basic functions of the protocols.
 
Prerequisites A understanding of UMTS / UTRAN and some HSPA knowledge is beneficial
